Ten months on from the first season, child-minder Diane, schoolgirl Rosie, stay-at-home mum Jasmin, businesswoman Roanna, midwife Vicky and blog-writer Kim are stumbling into the realities of parenthood together.

Following the birth of baby Emily, bisexual Kim is trying to be the perfect mum. But with a nonexistent love life and the shadow of her ex-lover Susie never far away, her relationship with Neil comes under jeopardy. As Kim prepares to be Godmother at Rosie’s baby’s christening she’s nervous to see Susie for the first time since they split. But there’s something Neil’s not telling her and there’s a shock in store for Kim.

Jasmin and Dev’s overbearing mothers have moved in with them and refuse to go home, but when a visit to hospital reveals devastating news this becomes the least of their worries. When surrogate Shelly comes in for a routine check-up her mum Maxine makes a surprise discovery and the maternity ward is thrown into chaos. Elsewhere Diane visits Rick in prison, as his release date draws near.
